Chapter 601 - Finding The Path Out

Lin Mu looked at Little Shrubby and Jing Luo who were waiting outside and nodded to them.

"Time to go!" Lin Mu spoke.

"YES!" Jing Luo exclaimed with excitement.

~ROAR~

Little Shrubby responded with his own roar, and the trio flew up. This time they were going to fly up as high as they could. The tear in the spatial fabric can appear at any place in the sky and Lin Mu would need to be there to open a portal from there to the sacred grounds.

Technically, one could leave the Minor Plane from anywhere in the area but the areas that had started to break apart first were the underground and sky. The underground was out of the option, as Jing Luo and Little shrubby would be unable to leave through that route.

Only Lin Mu with Phase might be able to leave through that route, but even then it may take him long to find the proper point which was the tether between the Minor Plane and the sacred grounds.

There would be multiple smaller tethers that would like to the main tether, and Lin Mu hoped to find one in the sky. Since the sky was so huge there were bound to be a few small tethers there.

The three of them kept on ascending and soon went past the top of the mountain. But the more they rose up the harder it was getting for them to fly. The concentration of spirit Qi in the air was now close to zero.

The way Nascent Soul realm cultivator flew is by using the ambient spirit Qi in the environment and using their own spirit Qi to create a push and pull effect. This way they would be able to fly around.

But when there was no environmental spirit Qi left, all they could do was use their own spirit Qi to create a propulsive effect. This increased the consumption of spirit Qi by at least two folds.

Plus the higher they went, the more spirit Qi would be consumed to maintain flight. That was the reason why most Nascent Soul realm cultivators did not fly too high. In fact, if there was a high concentration of spirit Qi in the air, a cultivator still might not be able to ascend past a certain limit.

~RUMBLE~

~RIP~

The minor world trembled once again as the sky shook. Lin Mu then saw the clouds suddenly dissipating, or more like leaking, into a small tear that had appeared in the spatial fabric. The tear sucked in all of the clouds like a vacuum before closing up.

The tear did not last for long, only about a second, but that was enough for Lin Mu to see the lesser void behind it.

"Not the right one, let's move to a different place." Lin Mu spoke.

Lin Mu knew the unless he saw the tether they would not be able to leave this place.

~RIP~

Another tear appeared in the sky as a black background was visible behind it. Lin Mu's eyes immediately snapped to it and squinted, his spatial perception raised to the maximum. His gaze went past the spatial fabric and the tear before managing to appear in the lesser void.

There, he saw a very faint glimmer that looked almost like a thread.

"THERE IT IS!" Lin Mu pointed.

"Is it the right one?" Jing Luo asked, since Lin Mu was pointing to a direction slightly far from the tear he was actually looking at.

"Yes, I can see the tether behind it, but it links to a different place in the sky. We just need to get to there." Lin Mu quickly explained while flying.

They changed their directions and continued flying behind Lin Mu. About a minute later, they managed to reach the place Lin Mu had pointed to.

"What now?" Jing Luo asked, seeing that there was no tear there.

"We wait, there needs to be a spatial tear here first before we can go through it." Lin Mu spoke.

"Can't you just make one on your own? Like you did before?" Jing Luo asked in confusion.

"No…" Lin Mu shook his head. "If I do that, the tether will be severed. I don't want to take that risk. At least now that we are here, we can just wait for it to open up." Lin Mu explained.

"I see…" Jing Luo nodded his head an acknowledgment.

He was not as proficient or knowledgeable about spatial theories as Lin Mu was. Lin Mu had after all gotten personal lessons from Senior Xukong himself. And if Xukong claimed himself to be second in spatial theory, no one would claim to be first in this world.

~RUMBLE~

Lin Mu and Jing Luo watched as the minor world slowly started to collapse. The earthquakes were only getting stronger and soon cracks started to appear on the ground as well.

~CRACK~

A minute later, a huge fissure that spanned from horizon to horizon opened up on the ground. The fissure split the mountain peak apart at its edges and soon started to expand.

~thud~

~thud~

~kaka~

The trees of the forest that were near the fissure all collapsed in the fissure as it expanded, and some of the rocks from the mountain also fell into it. The cliff where Lin Mu had met Jing Luo for the first time had now joined the fissure and had become a bottomless abyss.

It was then that Lin Mu's gaze was pulled to the fissure turned abyss. In the pitch black darkness, Lin Mu could feel a stream of spatial Qi coming out of the fissure. The spatial Qi was very faint but was still sensible for the ring.

Lin Mu used his spatial perception and looked at the fissure, not finding anything particular there. The spatial border was still too far deep in the underground, and there were too many obstacles for his eyes to see through.

An idea suddenly appeared in Lin Mu's mind and he spoke, "wait for me here a minute."
